'Monarch: Legacy of Monsters' Expands MonsterVerse on TV

Apple TV+ series explores the human impact of Godzilla's existence and the origins of the Monarch organization.

Apple TV+'s 'Monarch: Legacy of Monsters' is a new series that expands on the MonsterVerse, focusing on the human drama and the impact of Godzilla's existence on ordinary people.
The series features two parallel storylines, one set in 2015 following the aftermath of Godzilla's destruction of San Francisco, and the other set in the 1950s, focusing on the origins of the Monarch organization.
Father-son duo Kurt and Wyatt Russell play the same character, Lee Shaw, across the two timelines, providing a poignant look at the character's evolution over time.
The series does not require familiarity with the MonsterVerse movies, but provides additional context and depth for fans of the franchise.
Despite the shift from big screen to television, the series has been praised for its high-quality visual effects and maintaining the awe-inspiring presence of Godzilla and other Titans.
